Ingredients

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1 ½ cups waffle pieces

4 large eggs

1 cup milk

½ cup maple syrup

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, maple syrup, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Gently fold in the shredded chicken and waffle pieces into the egg mixture ensuring the waffle pieces are fully coated.

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly and ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the top is golden and casserole is set.

Allow the casserole to cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving to make sure the portions hold together.
